I review some fur-removal products for carpets in the first few minutes of this video and the rest is just for fun to celebrate 8 years of my favorite birthday gift...my golden retriever, Lori, and also to remember my miniature Schnauzer, Newt, who passed away this last July at 16 years old. Dogs are the best!!!

P.S. For those who want to know, my dogs were named after characters from Lonesome Dove, which is my husband's favorite book/T.V. miniseries. Our front room is themed after the movie, so you could say he's a little obsessed with it!
